I hope the vet report goes well to. I dont let her go without the head cone unless Im holding her, Im just too worried about her scratching open her incision. Her other eye bothers her also. I will ask the vet tomorrow for a soft cone. Ella is 7 lbs. I think she may be deaf also. Thank you everyone for your help. I couldnt have done it without you. I told little Ella she has a fan club and that alot of people love her and want her get better. I wanted all of you to help name her but wilst having my nervous breakdown last night my husband named her and I didnt want to tell him no. So anyway everything is going good I have figured out how to work with her better. Im new to fostering and I was so taken back by her condition and emotionally distressed that my husband had to take care of her last night. Its a little hard to look at her I feel like her life was robbed and she has so little time now try to enjoy whats left. We lost our yorkie Maggie who was 16 when she died last may and Ella makes me think about the differences in the lives they led and it breaks my heart. But I need to be positive, megansmomma's last post was so sweet and true. I have found she likes to walk and eat. So we walk on leash for about 15 min and then I let her wander around the backyard (she is less frantic outside) then I feed her soft food and then she sleeps for several hours without crying. Yay!!!!! Me and the other dogs are all much calmer when she isnt crying. She also loves to be held in a blanket. She dosent like being free in the house its too unfamiliar but she calms down now in her little bathroom. She has figured out where everything is and I think she now finds some comfort there.
Here are some pics of her. The first is a close up of her "good" eye, second she is checking under the tree for her xmas present and third sleeping peacefully. Ella says thank you to everyone that helped her and her foster mommy.
